HI Steve,
I have updated Spybot, but will try it again.
I'm just getting a bit frustrated with these pop ups, especially last
week when my daughter was using the computer and a chat room with naked
women came up. See what I mean.
Many thanks and I'll update and try again.
Sharon

Hi Sharon,
Have you tried checking for updates in Spybot? You can check for
updates on the Actions menu, or there's a button there to do it. I
found that once I got all current updates, it got rid of a lot more
rubbish, including pop-ups. I personally prefer Spybot to Ad Aware,
because it is more user-friendly, particularly if you have JFW. You can
use both with Window-Eyes, and both with JFW, if you employ the JAWS
cursor a lot. It is easier with Ad Aware with Window-Eyes, only because
you always have a live mouse, rather than popping in and out of
different cursors, like you do with JFW.
All the best

Hi,
I am still being bombarded with pop ups, so have installed Ad aware on
my PC.
However, I am finding it very Jaws unfriendly, and am not quite sure
what to do with it. I am having to route jaws to PC cursor to be able
to access any buttons, as the menus just say system.
I'm using Jaws 6, windows XP and Ad Aware SE personal, or that's what
the icon on the desktop calls it anyway.
Any help much appreciated, because these pop ups are driving me mad.
I have been using Spybot, but the pop ups are still there.
Thanks
Sharon
